+From 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
+From: Diego Domingos <diegodo@br.ibm.com>
+Date: Wed, 10 Mar 2021 14:17:52 -0500
+Subject: [PATCH] ieee1275/ofdisk: retry on open failure
+
+This patch aims to make grub more robust when booting from SAN/Multipath disks.
+
+If a path is failing intermittently so grub will retry the OPEN and READ the
+disk (grub_ieee1275_open and grub_ieee1275_read) until the total amount of times
+specified in MAX_RETRIES.
